RC0603F114CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RC0603F114CS is a 110 kOhms ±1% thick film chip resistor manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics, rated at 0.05W (1/20W) in a 0201 (0603 Metric) surface mount package. This component is classified as Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). The part is designed for applications requiring precision resistive elements in compact form factors with moisture resistance characteristics. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when primary inventory is unavailable or when supply chain diversification is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RC0603F114CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance Value: 110 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (precision grade must be maintained)
• Power Rating: 0.05W / 1/20W (thermal capacity must be equal or greater)
• Package Type: 0201 (0603 Metric) (physical and electrical footprint compatibility)
• Composition: Thick Film (manufacturing process consistency)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory alignment)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: MSL 1 (handling compatibility)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Temperature Coefficient: May vary within industry-standard ranges
• Operating Temperature Range: Upper limit may exceed specification; lower limit must not be less stringent
• Manufacturer: Different manufacturers permitted if all mandatory parameters align

The identified substitute part CRCW0201110KFKED (Vishay Dale) meets all mandatory matching criteria and is therefore classified as a direct equivalent for component selection purposes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part: RC0603F114CS (Samsung Electro-Mechanics)

Selection basis: Active product status, full RoHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, and established supply chain availability (1056 pcs in stock). Suitable for standard production applications within the specified -55°C ~ 125°C operating envelope.

Substitute Part: CRCW0201110KFKED (Vishay Dale)

Selection basis: Meets all mandatory electrical and mechanical equivalence criteria. Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating. Offers enhanced performance characteristics including superior temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C vs. ±250ppm/°C) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). Higher inventory availability (4459 pcs in stock) supports supply chain continuity. Suitable for applications requiring extended thermal performance or where Vishay component qualification is specified.

Regulatory & Compliance Alignment:

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and identical EAR99 export classification (HTSUS 8533.21.0030). No regulatory barriers exist for cross-substitution within the same application context.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW0201110KFKED be used as a direct replacement for RC0603F114CS in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all mandatory parameters: 110 kOhms ±1% resistance, 0.05W power rating, 0201 package type, thick film composition, and identical physical dimensions. PCB footprints and solder reflow profiles are compatible.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The Vishay Dale CRCW0201110KFKED offers two performance advantages: (1) lower temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C vs. ±250ppm/°C), resulting in better resistance stability across temperature variations, and (2) extended operating temperature range to 155°C versus 125°C. These represent performance enhancements rather than compatibility issues.

Q: Are there any moisture sensitivity or handling differences?

A: No. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating identical moisture sensitivity levels and handling requirements. No special precautions or storage condition changes are necessary when switching between these parts.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in high-precision applications?

A: Both parts meet ±1% tolerance specification. However, the Vishay Dale part's superior temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C) provides better long-term resistance stability across temperature cycling, making it preferable for applications with strict temperature-dependent accuracy requirements.

Q: What is the package compatibility status?

A: Both parts use identical 0201 (0603 Metric) surface mount packages with matching dimensions (0.024" L x 0.012" W, 0.60mm x 0.30mm) and height (0.010" / 0.26mm). Tape & Reel packaging format is consistent. No PCB redesign or requalification is required for substitution.

Q: Are there any regulatory or compliance concerns with substitution?

A: No. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and identical export classification (EAR99). Substitution does not introduce regulatory compliance issues.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on application requirements. For standard operating conditions within -55°C ~ 125°C, either part is suitable. For applications requiring extended temperature operation, superior temperature stability, or Vishay component qualification, select CRCW0201110KFKED. For Samsung-qualified designs or existing supply agreements, retain RC0603F114CS.
